With Israel Adesanya and Paulo Costa scheduled to fight at UFC 253, Adesanya spoke about the possibility of closure after their fight. Israel Adesnya will be defending his middleweight belt against Costa.
As expected, Adesanya wants to keep the belt post the UFC 253 which he has claimed at UFC 236 in Atlanta and holds it since then.
Adesanya has defended his title since then against every opponent. He defended it against Robert Whittaker and Yoel Romero. Now, it’s time for him to defend it against his long-time rival, Paulo Costa.
Costa is infamous for his trash talking and then eventually gettin better of his opponents. He always creates rivalries and promises to annihilate them. Now, it is time for him to annihilate Israel Adesanya.
Israel Adesanya says Paulo Costa is “juiced to the gills”
Adensya and Costa have been at each other’s necks for a very ling time now. Now they are going to fight soon, but the question is, will peace restore between the two post their clash.
As for now, Paulo Costa doesn’t think so. He is adamant that it will not be the end. He even said that they won’t shake hands with Adesanya after the fight.
On the other hand, when Adesanya was asked the same question, his reaction was surprising. He said, “Peace? I don’t know. You can get closure. You know when you break up with someone and you look for closure. Don’t need to look for closure in anyone, you find it within yourself.”
During UFC 253 pre-fight interview, Adesanya answered about Costa’s physique and said ” “I think it’s great for me, it’s that aesthetic of it, I’m this skinny person, this little frail kid that everyone looks at. He looks like the perfect antagonist, he’s big, bulky and juiced up to the f*cking gills. He’s a guy that beats everybody on th e fence, so when I come out there with the Bruce Lee sh*t and f*ck him up, it’s going to be ‘oh my god wow, he beat that big muscle boy.” You can watch the video of his interview below.
“What better antagonist than this guy, who was undefeated, a KO artist, he looks the way he does, ballooned up. It’s like David and Goliath. I (expletive) this guy up, and it’s just spectacular. As they say: Someone’s 0 has got to go. It’s a beautifully set up story. You couldn’t write this (expletive). You could, but it’s real.”

Instead of being rash, he acted wisely. Seeing his zen-like approach, he might actually not let Costa get on his nerves.
